[QUOTE="Stopspying, post: 1070735, member: 69368"] There have been a series of cyber attacks on the nuclear waste facilities at Sellafield in Cumbria, UK, 'authorities' have denied that some occurred, others seem to have been sat on and attempts made to cover them up. It is an ongoing situation, working out what the truth is when a government, commercial businesses, nuclear waste and hacking are involved isn't an easy task. More dangerous grades of nuclear waste are stored there than just that at the Low Level Waste Repository.
